[0044] See also Figure 1 , shows a schematic flow chart of a satellite rescue method, the method specifically comprises the following steps:

[0045] S101: The vehicle responds to the user's fault assistance instruction, obtains rescue information currently related to the vehicle, and generates a corresponding rescue request according to the rescue information.

[0046] In this embodiment, when the user drives the vehicle to a place far away from the operator's base station, such as a desert, ocean, or forest, and encounters an emergency and the communication devices are unable to communicate, the corresponding fault assistance instruction can be triggered, so that when the vehicle detects the corresponding fault assistance instruction, it responds to the fault assistance instruction, obtains the rescue information currently related to the vehicle, and generates a rescue request based on the obtained rescue information. The generated rescue request can be in the form of a short message, which is not limited in this embodiment of the application.

[0047] In some embodiments, corresponding satellite communication chips and fault assistance functions can be pre-installed on TBOX, DOCK, external devices and other devices configured on the vehicle, so that when the user encounters an emergency and the communication devices cannot communicate, the fault assistance function integrated on the TBOX, DOCK, external devices and other devices can be triggered to send a corresponding fault assistance instruction to the vehicle, so that when the vehicle detects the corresponding fault assistance instruction, it obtains the current location information, vehicle information, user information configured by the user and vehicle external fault information of the vehicle, and generates a corresponding rescue request based on the acquired location information, vehicle information, user information configured by the user and vehicle external fault information, and finally sends the generated rescue request to the rescue platform through the satellite communication chip. Among them, the current location information, vehicle information, user information and vehicle external fault information of the vehicle constitute the current rescue information of the vehicle.

[0048] It should be noted that the vehicle's external fault information may include broken glass of the vehicle, damaged doors of the vehicle, burst tires of the vehicle, etc. The user can configure it according to actual applications, and the embodiments of the present application are not limited here.

[0049] In other embodiments, a corresponding fault help button may be set on the HUT interface of the vehicle, or a corresponding fault help function button may be set in the vehicle, so that the user can send a corresponding fault help instruction to the vehicle by clicking the fault help function button on the HUT interface or the fault help function button set in the vehicle.

[0050] In this embodiment, the vehicle information at least includes the vehicle's steering wheel rotation information, engine information, motor information, tire information, whether the vehicle has an automatic driving function / the vehicle does not have an automatic driving function, whether the vehicle has a remote driving function / the vehicle does not have a remote driving function, etc.; the user information at least includes the number of users in the vehicle, the physical condition of each user, the presence of a target user with driving ability in the current vehicle / the absence of a target user with driving ability in the current vehicle, etc., and the location information includes the coordinates of the vehicle's current location; accordingly, the rescue request generated based on the rescue information may carry the vehicle's movement status, vehicle external fault information, whether the vehicle has an automatic driving function / the vehicle does not have an automatic driving function, whether the vehicle has a remote driving function / the vehicle does not have a remote driving function, the number of users in the vehicle, the physical condition of each user, the presence of a target user with driving ability in the current vehicle / the absence of a target user with driving ability in the current vehicle, the coordinates of the vehicle's current location, etc.

[0051] It should be noted that the user information may include injury information of each user in the vehicle; the injury information may include a mild concussion, a hand fracture, a leg abrasion, etc., which is not limited in the embodiments of the present application.

[0052] In a specific application process, the movement condition of the vehicle is determined by the vehicle according to the steering wheel information, engine information, motor information and tire information in the acquired vehicle information. The movement condition of the vehicle may indicate that the vehicle cannot move, or that the vehicle can move.

[0053] As a preferred method of an embodiment of the present application, the process of determining the movement status of the vehicle based on the engine information, motor information and tire information in the vehicle information includes: the vehicle can determine whether the steering wheel steering information has a steering wheel steering system fault code, whether the engine information has an engine fault code, whether the motor information has a motor fault code, and whether the tire information has a tire fault code; if the steering wheel steering information does not have a steering wheel steering system fault code, the engine information does not have an engine fault code, the motor information does not have a motor fault code, and the tire information does not have a tire fault code, it is determined that the movement status of the vehicle is that the vehicle can move, and the fault information of the vehicle is determined that the vehicle has no internal fault; if the steering wheel steering information has a steering wheel steering system fault code, and / or the engine information has an engine fault code, and / or the motor information has a motor fault code, and / or the tire information has a tire fault code, the movement status of the vehicle is determined to be that the vehicle cannot move.

[0054] As another preferred method of an embodiment of the present application, the vehicle can also perform a simulated start of the vehicle. If the simulated start of the vehicle fails, it can be determined that the movement condition of the vehicle is that the vehicle cannot move; if the simulated start of the vehicle is successful and the tires of the vehicle do not issue a fault warning, it can be determined that the movement condition of the vehicle is that the vehicle can move.

[0055] The above is merely a preferred method for determining the movement status of a vehicle provided in an embodiment of the present application. The specific method for determining the movement status of a vehicle is set according to actual applications and is not limited in the embodiment of the present application.

[0056] As a preferred method of an embodiment of the present application, rescue equipment and a walkie-talkie can also be equipped on the vehicle; if the vehicle detects that the corresponding vehicle is also equipped with rescue equipment and a walkie-talkie, then when the vehicle responds to the user's fault rescue command, it can also control the rescue equipment to obtain environmental information of the vehicle's current environment, and generate corresponding auxiliary rescue information based on the acquired environmental information and the equipment information of the rescue equipment, so as to generate a rescue request based on the rescue information, the auxiliary rescue information and the frequency of the walkie-talkie, and control the walkie-talkie to remain on.

[0057] In some embodiments, the device information of the rescue equipment may include the device model and device network of the rescue equipment, etc.; the environmental information may include the current appearance picture of the vehicle, the environmental picture and video of the current environment of the vehicle, etc., which is not limited in the embodiments of the present application.

[0058] It should be noted that the rescue equipment can be a drone. While controlling the rescue equipment to obtain the current environmental information of the vehicle, the drone can also be controlled to search for rescueable vehicles in the surrounding area, thereby improving rescue efficiency.

[0059] As another preferred method of the embodiment of the present application, a drone can also be configured on the vehicle; when the drone is configured on the vehicle, the drone is controlled to fly and environmental video is collected during the flight; the environmental video is analyzed to determine whether there is a second vehicle that can be helped; if there is a second vehicle that can be helped, the coordinates of the second vehicle that can be helped are determined, and based on the coordinates, a rescue request is sent to the second vehicle that can be helped through a satellite communication chip, so that the second vehicle that can be helped performs corresponding rescue based on the rescue request.

[0060] In the specific application process, when the second vehicle that can be helped receives a rescue request, if the rescue request indicates that the vehicle can move and the vehicle has a remote driving function / autonomous driving function, it can feedback a response message indicating that the help request was successful to the vehicle, and remotely drive the vehicle to the coordinates of the second vehicle that can be helped through the remote driving function / autonomous driving function of the vehicle. In this way, the second vehicle that can be helped does not need to go to the vehicle that needs rescue, which can improve the rescue efficiency to a certain extent.

[0061] When the rescue request indicates that the vehicle can move and there is a target user with driving ability in the vehicle, the second vehicle that can be helped can feedback response information indicating successful help to the vehicle, so that the target user in the vehicle can drive the vehicle to the coordinates. In this way, the target user can drive the vehicle to the coordinates of the second vehicle that can be helped by himself, and the second vehicle that can be helped does not need to go to the vehicle that needs rescue, which can improve the rescue efficiency to a certain extent.

[0062] When the second vehicle that can be rescued receives the request for help, if it determines that it is currently unable to rescue the vehicle that needs rescue, it can feedback response information indicating that the request for help failed to the vehicle, so that when the vehicle receives the response information indicating that the request for help failed, it returns to the step of controlling the flight of the drone and collecting environmental video during the flight, so as to re-control the drone to search for rescueable vehicles in the surrounding area.

[0063] It should be noted that the vehicle can determine whether there are other vehicles equipped with satellite communication chips in the environmental video. If so, the other vehicle closest to its own position can be identified as the second rescue vehicle; if not, it can return to the step of controlling the drone flight and collecting environmental video during the flight.

[0064] In some embodiments, the second vehicle that can be helped can receive the rescue request sent by the vehicle through the satellite communication chip configured in the vehicle, and determine whether to go to the rescue based on the received rescue request; if rescue is possible, and the rescue request indicates that the vehicle can move and has the automatic driving function, a response message of successful help and requesting the vehicle to control the automatic driving of the coordinates of the second vehicle that can be helped can be fed back to the vehicle, so that when the vehicle receives the response message, it can determine that the help request to the second vehicle is successful based on the received response message, and control the vehicle to automatically drive to the coordinates of the second vehicle that can be helped based on the response information.

[0065] In other embodiments, the second vehicle that can be helped can receive the rescue request sent by the vehicle through the satellite communication chip configured in the vehicle, and determine whether to go to the rescue based on the received rescue request; if rescue is possible, and the rescue request indicates that the vehicle can move and there is a target user with driving ability, a response message can be fed back to the vehicle indicating that the help was successfully sought and asking the target user to drive the vehicle to the coordinates of the second vehicle that can be helped, so that when the vehicle receives the response message, it outputs corresponding response information to enable the target user to drive the vehicle to the coordinates of the second vehicle that can be helped.

[0066] In other embodiments, when the second vehicle that can be rescued determines that it can be rescued based on the rescue request received and the rescue request indicates that the vehicle cannot move, the second vehicle can provide feedback to the vehicle that the rescue was successful and asks the vehicle to wait for rescue on the spot. This allows the vehicle to search for nearby forces that can be rescued through drones when it arrives in an area without signal coverage and breaks down and cannot move, and provide a satellite communication chip to send corresponding rescue information so that the vehicle that can be rescued that has received the rescue request can carry out rescue, thereby ensuring the user's life safety.

[0067] In some embodiments, before controlling the flight of the drone and collecting environmental video during the flight, it is also possible to determine whether the battery level of the drone is greater than a preset level; if the battery level of the drone is not greater than the preset level, it can be considered that the drone does not have the ability to fly the preset distance; if the battery level of the drone is greater than the preset level, it can be considered that the drone has the ability to fly the preset distance; when the drone has the ability to fly the preset distance, the drone can be used to search for rescue forces near the vehicle to improve rescue efficiency.

[0068] It should be noted that the preset power level can be set according to the preset flight distance, which is not limited in this embodiment of the present application.

[0069] It should also be noted that the preset flight distance can be 100 meters, 200 meters, 300 meters, etc., which is not limited in this embodiment of the present application.

[0070] Furthermore, in an embodiment of the present application, the vehicle is also equipped with a material assistance function. When the vehicle detects that the user has triggered the material assistance function, it issues a corresponding material assistance instruction; the vehicle responds to the user's material assistance instruction and generates a corresponding material assistance request based on the location information, the frequency of the walkie-talkie and the material assistance information indicated by the material rescue instruction; the material assistance request is sent to the rescue platform through the satellite communication chip, and the walkie-talkie is controlled to remain in an on state so that the rescue platform can transport corresponding materials to the vehicle according to the material assistance request.

[0071] In some embodiments, users can also configure corresponding material assistance functions on devices such as the vehicle's TBOX, DOCK, external devices, etc. that are integrated with satellite communication chips, so that users can trigger the material assistance function to trigger corresponding material assistance instructions to the vehicle, so that when the vehicle detects the corresponding material assistance instruction, it can obtain the vehicle's current location information, the material assistance information configured by the user, and the walkie-talkie frequency of the walkie-talkie configured on the vehicle, so as to generate a corresponding material assistance request based on the acquired location information, material assistance information and walkie-talkie frequency, and finally the generated material assistance request can be sent to the rescue platform through the satellite communication chip, so that the rescue platform can distribute the corresponding assistance materials to the vehicle based on the material assistance request.

[0072] In other embodiments, the user can also trigger the corresponding satellite communication material assistance function button configured on the vehicle's HUT interface, or the satellite communication material assistance function button pre-set in the vehicle, so that the user can send the corresponding material assistance instruction to the vehicle by clicking the case or button.

[0073] Furthermore, in an embodiment of the present application, a corresponding satellite friend and family communication function can be pre-configured in the vehicle. When the vehicle detects that the user has triggered the satellite friend and family communication function, it issues a corresponding friend and family communication instruction; the vehicle responds to the user's friend and family communication instruction, determines the target friends and family corresponding to the friend and family communication instruction, and sends the user's input voice, information, picture, data file, or the vehicle's current location information to the target friends and family through the satellite communication chip; or receives voice, information, picture, data file, or current location information sent by the target friends and family to the user.

[0074] The above are merely the various satellite communication functions provided in the embodiments of the present application. The present application may also implement other satellite communication functions according to actual applications, which are not limited in the present application.

[0075] S102: The vehicle sends a rescue request to the rescue platform via a satellite communication chip.

[0076] During the specific execution of step S102, after the vehicle generates a corresponding rescue request, it can upload the generated rescue request from the transmitter to the satellite through the satellite communication chip, so that after receiving the corresponding rescue request, the satellite processes the received rescue request and forwards the processed rescue request to the satellite earth station; the satellite earth station then performs operations such as modulation and demodulation on the processed rescue request to obtain the original rescue request, and forwards the obtained rescue request to the corresponding operator, and finally the operator sends the rescue request to the corresponding rescue platform.

[0077] It should be noted that the rescue platform can be a rescue platform of a TSP platform, a national platform, or other platforms, and this embodiment of the present application does not limit this.

[0078] Furthermore, in an embodiment of the present application, if the vehicle also generates a corresponding request for assistance for supplies, the generated request for assistance for supplies can also be uploaded to the satellite by the transmitter through the satellite communication chip, so that after receiving the corresponding request for assistance for supplies, the satellite processes the received request for assistance for supplies and forwards the processed request for assistance for supplies to the satellite earth station; the satellite earth station then performs modulation and demodulation operations on the processed request for assistance for supplies to obtain the original request for assistance for supplies, and forwards the obtained request for assistance for supplies to the corresponding operator, and finally the operator sends the rescue request to the corresponding rescue platform.

[0079] S103: The rescue platform receives the rescue request sent by the vehicle via the satellite communication chip.

[0080] S104: When the rescue platform determines according to the rescue request that the vehicle is immobile, the rescue platform determines a first vehicle that can be sought for help and a rescue plan according to the rescue request.

[0081] During the specific execution of step S104, after receiving the rescue request sent by the vehicle through the satellite communication chip, the rescue platform can determine whether the vehicle is currently movable based on the vehicle movement status in the rescue request; if the vehicle movement status indicates that the vehicle cannot move, the corresponding first vehicle that can be helped can be further determined based on the indication in the help request, and a corresponding rescue plan can be formulated according to the rescue request, so that the first vehicle that can be helped can rescue the vehicle based on the rescue plan.

[0082] As a preferred method of the embodiment of the present application, when the vehicle movement status in the rescue request indicates that the vehicle cannot move, and the rescue request indicates that there is no target user with driving ability in the vehicle, the rescue platform determines the first rescue vehicle closest to the vehicle according to the coordinates in the location information indicated in the rescue request, and generates a corresponding rescue plan according to the location information indicated in the rescue request, the vehicle's external fault information, and each user's injury information. Among them, the coordinates in the location information indicated in the rescue request are the coordinates of the vehicle's current location.

[0083] In this embodiment, when the rescue platform determines that the vehicle movement status in the rescue request indicates that the vehicle cannot move, it can search for at least one target vehicle that can be rescued within a preset range of the vehicle based on the coordinates in the location information indicated by the rescue request, and determine the target vehicle that is closest to the vehicle among all the searched target vehicles as the first rescued vehicle.

[0084] In actual application, when the user's injury information includes a scratch on the user's leg, the generated rescue plan may include gauze, iodine, and sterile cotton swabs for first aid for the user; when the user's injury information includes a hand fracture, the generated rescue plan may include a fixed hand board, gauze, etc. for first aid for the user. It can be set according to actual application, and the embodiments of the present application are not limited.

[0085] In actual application, when the vehicle's external fault information indicates that the vehicle's tire has burst, the generated rescue plan may include a corresponding number of spare tires, jacks, etc., which is not limited in this embodiment of the present application.

[0086] As another preferred method of an embodiment of the present application, if the vehicle is also equipped with rescue equipment and a walkie-talkie, the rescue request also includes auxiliary rescue information and the walkie-talkie frequency of the walkie-talkie, and then the rescue plan generated according to the rescue request also carries the equipment information and walkie-talkie frequency of the rescue equipment.

[0087] In the actual application of this process, when the vehicle's appearance picture in the vehicle's auxiliary rescue information indicates that the vehicle's appearance is severely damaged, in order to improve the rescue efficiency, the generated rescue plan may also include towing information indicating that the vehicle should be towed away directly.

[0088] S105: The rescue platform sends the rescue plan to the first vehicle that can be helped, so that the vehicle that can be helped can rescue the vehicle according to the rescue plan.

[0089] During the specific execution of step S105, after determining that the vehicle cannot move and determining the corresponding first vehicle that can be helped and the rescue plan, the rescue platform can send the rescue plan to the first vehicle that can be helped, so that the first vehicle that can be helped can determine the current location of the vehicle based on the location information in the rescue plan, determine the tools for repairing the vehicle based on the vehicle's external fault information in the rescue plan and the injury information of each user, and determine the first aid equipment and medicines for first aid to the user.

[0090] Furthermore, in an embodiment of the present application, if the vehicle and the rescue vehicle are equipped with walkie-talkies, the first vehicle that can seek help can also match the walkie-talkie frequency of the walkie-talkie in the rescue plan with the walkie-talkie equipped on the vehicle, so as to communicate with the user on the vehicle in real time, understand the status information of the vehicle user, and further improve the rescue efficiency.

[0091] Furthermore, in an embodiment of the present application, if the vehicle is also equipped with a drone, the first vehicle that can seek help can also control the drone according to the drone network indicated by the equipment information in the rescue plan, further understand the status information of the vehicle user in real time, and further improve the rescue efficiency.

[0092] Furthermore, in an embodiment of the present application, after receiving the rescue plan, the first vehicle that can be asked for help can further determine whether it can go for rescue at the moment based on the rescue plan combined with its own location and rescue capabilities; if so, a response message instructing the vehicle to wait for rescue on the spot can be fed back to the vehicle; if not, a response message indicating that the request for help failed can be fed back to the rescue platform so that the rescue platform can re-determine the corresponding first vehicle that can be asked for help.

[0093] Furthermore, the rescue platform can also receive the vehicle's request for help with supplies through the satellite communication chip, determine the first vehicle that can be helped closest to the vehicle based on the location information in the rescue information, and send the request for help with supplies to the first vehicle that can be helped, so that the first vehicle that can be helped can transport the supplies corresponding to the supply request information to the vehicle.

[0094] The material assistance request at least includes the rescue information and the material assistance information indicated by the material assistance instruction; the material assistance request is a vehicle response to the user's material assistance instruction, and is generated according to the rescue information and the material assistance information indicated by the material assistance instruction.

[0095] The present application provides a satellite rescue method for a vehicle. When the vehicle detects a user's fault assistance instruction, it obtains rescue information currently related to the vehicle and generates a corresponding rescue request based on the rescue information; the rescue request is sent to a rescue platform through a satellite communication chip, so that when the rescue platform receives a rescue request indicating that the vehicle cannot move, it determines the corresponding first vehicle that can be helped and the rescue plan based on the received rescue request, so that the first vehicle that can be helped can rescue the vehicle according to the rescue plan. The technical solution provided by the present application allows the vehicle to send a corresponding rescue request to the rescue platform through the installed satellite communication chip, and the rescue platform can perform corresponding rescue on the vehicle based on the received rescue request. Even when the vehicle is in an area without signal coverage, the corresponding rescue request can be sent through the satellite communication chip, thereby ensuring the user's life safety.

[0096] Further, when it is determined that the vehicle movement condition indicates that the vehicle can move, the embodiment of the present application also provides another satellite rescue method, such as Figure 2 As shown, the method specifically comprises the following steps:

[0097] S201: The vehicle responds to the user's fault assistance instruction, obtains rescue information currently related to the vehicle, and generates a corresponding rescue request based on the rescue information.

[0098] S202: The vehicle sends a rescue request to the rescue platform via a satellite communication chip.

[0099] S203: The rescue platform receives the rescue request sent by the vehicle via the satellite communication chip.
